Description
The Florida MEDS-AD demonstration provides coverage for certain aged and disabled individuals with incomes up to 88% FPL. This optional Medicaid eligibility group was eliminated from the State plan in 2005. Enrollees receive services through the same delivery systems as the traditional Florida Medicaid program. The objective of the demonstration is to evaluate the impact of providing high intensity pharmacy case management for certain individuals. The demonstration will be funded through savings generated from avoiding high cost institutional placement that would occur in the absence of the pharmacy case management services.
